Now don't get snooty about how long it takes to get a response.
This is what I've got to say based on removing my hatchback's sunroof.
The "cover" over the mounting screws for the mirror just snaps off. However it normally breaks the tabs due to being old brittle plastic.
Once the headliner is fully removed, you should be able to see all the bolts that hold the sunroof assembly in place. At the front, there is a pair of "flanges" that the assembly hangs on while installing the unit.
There are also the drain hoses at all four corners (at least on my hatch). You will have to remove them in order for it to all come free. (I just cut them due to replacing the whole roof section with a non-sunroof panel)

I believe those are in the rear
You should consider a helping hand when putting in back up again. Yes, it hurts getting the entire thing falling right on top of your head. Trying to hold up the front and rear while working the bolts all by yourself can do that to you

yeap i got mine done....it was the rear hangers that were ******* me up hahaha i ddint' notice em i was in rush. i got another sunroof and have it installed.
as for repairing the sunroof...the one i replaced..the right side track would not go up and down completely..i mean it slides perfectly..but just won't shut completely and it opens fine but u can see the track not lifting..i think its a clip or something...i'm trying to fix so i can sell it to a friend...not sure how to repair tho...i just gotta start taking bolts off and see how to repair it..
